When done right, Bauhaus can look pretty good. However, living in Germany, I've come to mostly dislike it. The 70's style Bauhaus buildings are everywhere here, they are ugly, clumpy, and break with the medieval/Jugendstil facades in the city centers. It does not help that thet often were built with cheap materials and are hard to maintain bacaude of that. Unfortunately, they often now are under Monument protection so also can' be demolished.

Most of the architects went to Israel and build Tel Aviv which is the city with the most influence from Bauhaus architecture. The brutalist buildings in the 60s and 70s in Germany are not Bauhaus.
